I'm *very* interested in seeing such a service. I want to keep in line
with using all of tapestry's i8n and be able to send multi-part mime
messages which have html and plain text.
Please do put something up on the wiki and let us all know.
goody goody.

I don't agree on this... Also I don't see really differences between
"static" email and interactive HTML. In the emails we generate, there is
lots of dynamic content although there is no form handling, we use the
same
components plus many other tapestry features. Velocity is fine, but
not when
you start to have complex emails. What makes tapestry great for this task
are the templates. In addition, I rather not add another technology to
our
project, Velocity is simple, but just *more* to learn and manage for our
other developers.
And I'll give you a very usefull usage of sending html pages: for
exceptions, we send the tapestry error page by email (in tapestry 3)
while
we give to the client a friendly error page. Logging is fine but it
doesn't
give you all the detailed info of an error.
I've been working on an EmailService for T4, you can inject it in any
page
and the interface is quite simple. It takes a list of properties (for
email
headers, from/to/subject), a page (String or object) and eventually an
object map if you want to call the external interface of your page.
It is working 90% now and it is relying on a fresh request cycle, so
it will
be possible to thread the whole thing. Getting a fresh request
cycle requires quite a bit of hacking, I may need to write a specific
engine
object. I can post the code on the wiki once I'm done if anyone is
interested.

Tapestry is for creating interactive HTML, not a static HTML-formatted

(IMHO). I think you're trying to use an elephant gun to hunt squirrel
here.
Velocity is perfect for generating email text. You can still use your
architecture, you just put some helper beans in the VelocityContext.

I had this related link over at my delicious (

It's entitled 'Sending Tapestry-generated email with Spring' and it's
